1 About this User Manual
This manual contains all information you will
need to initially install and operate your new TV.
Also read the help text which are being
displayed at the bottom of the screen.
If this instruction manual does not give an
answer or if ‘Troubleshooting’ does not
solve your TV problem, you can call your Local
Philips Customer or Service Centre. See the
supplied Worldwide guarantee booklet.
Please have the Model and Product number
(which you can find at the back or the bottom
of your television set or on the packaging)
ready, before calling the Philips customer
support service.
Model: ...........................................
Product No: .................................
1.1 Digital BroadcastingBroadcasting
Next to analogue broadcast reception, your TV
has a built-in TV tuner which receives, decodes
and displays digital terrestrial signals.
Digital TV and radio channels are only available
and reproduced:
• when Digital Video Broadcasting Terrestrial
(DVB-T) is applicable in your local area;
• and if DVB-T signal is supported by your TV
for the country you live in. See
www.philips.com/support for the list of
supported countries.
1.2 Analogue Broadcasting
When your area is not broadcasting digital
terrestrial signals, the TV will only receive
analogue channels.
When on a frequency where a DVB signal is
broadcasted, the tuner will try to decode an
analogue TV channel and hence will not show
video.
4
2 Important
2.1 General
Do not insert the power plug in a wall
socket or hang the TV to the wall before
all connections are made.
• Place or hang the TV wherever you want, but
make sure that air can circulate freely through
the ventilation slots.
• Do not install the TV in a confined space such
as a book case or a similar unit.
• To prevent any fire hazards, no naked flame
sources, such as lighted candles, should be
placed near the TV.
• Avoid heat, direct sunlight and exposure to
rain or water.
2.2 Care of the screen
• Do not touch, push or rub or strike the
screen with anything hard as this may scratch
or damage the screen permanently.
• Do not touch the surface with bare hands or
greasy cloth (some cosmetics are detrimental
to the screen).
• Unplug the TV before cleaning the screen.
• When the surface becomes dusty wipe gentlyWhen the surface becomes dusty wipe gently
with absorbent cotton or other soft material
like chamois soaks.
• Do not remove the protective sheet until youDo not remove the protective sheet until you
have completed the stand/wall mounting and
connections. Please handle with care.
• Use only soft cloth provided to clean theUse only soft cloth provided to clean the
glossy black front of the TV.
• Wipe off water droplets as soon as possible.
Their long time contact with the screen
causes deformations and colour fading.
2.3 Stationary images on the TV
A characteristic of LCD and Plasma Panels is
that displaying the same image for a long time
can cause a permanent after-image to remain
on the screen. This is called phosphor burn
in. Normal use of the TV should involve the
showing of pictures that contain constantly
moving and changing images that fill the screen.
Examples of stationary images (this is not an
all-inclusive list, you may encounter others in
your viewing):
• TV and DVD menus: listings of DVD disk content;
• Black bars: when black bars appear at
the left and right side of the screen, it is
recommended to change to a picture format
so that the picture fills the entire screen;
• TV channel logo: present a problem if they are
bright and stationary. Moving or low-contrast
graphics are less likely to cause uneven aging
of the screen;
• Stock market stickers: presented at the
bottom of the TV screen;
• Shopping channel logos and pricing displays:
bright and shown constantly or repeatedly in
the same location on the TV screen.
Examples of still pictures also include logos,
computer images, time display, teletext and
images displayed in 4:3 mode, static images or
characters, etc.
Tip
Reduce contrast and brightness when viewing.
2.4 Electric, Magnetic and
Electromagnetic Fields (“EMF”)
• Philips Royal Electronics manufactures and
sells many products targeted at consumers,
which, like any electronic apparatus, in
general have the ability to emit and receive
electro magnetic signals.
• One of Philips’ leading Business Principles is to
take all necessary health and safety measures
for our products, to comply with all applicable
legal requirements and to stay well within
the EMF standards applicable at the time of
producing the products.
• Philips is committed to develop, produce and
market products that cause no adverse health
effects.
• Philips confirms that if its products are handled
properly for their intended use, they are safe
to use according to scientific evidence available
today.
• Philips plays an active role in the development
of international EMF and safety standards,
enabling Philips to anticipate further
developments in standardisation for early
integration in its products.

ENGLISH
3.1 Overview of the rear connector panel
There is a wide range of audio and video
equipment that can be connected to your TV.
See 'To make video and audio connections', p. 43.
EXT1 can handle CVBS, RGB and Audio L/R;
EXT2 can handle CVBS, S-VIDEO, RGB and
Audio L/R;
EXT3 can handle YPbPr, RGB H/V and Audio L/R;
HDMI 1 and 2.
Supported video formats: 480i, 480p, 576i,
576p, 720p, 1080i.
Warning
Disconnect all power sources before making any
connections.
Tip
It is preferable to connect peripherals with RGB
output to EXT1 or EXT2 as RGB provides a
better picture quality.
3.2 Common Interface Slot
Warning
Switch off your TV before any module is
inserted in the Common Interface slot.
Note
This functionality is only available in certain
countries.
To receive scrambled DTV signals you will need
a CA (Conditional Access) module and a Smart
card provided by the service provider.
• A CA module can enable additional services,
for example Pay TV.
Contact your Common Interface service
provider to get more information about these
modules.
• Although CA module types may vary
dependent on the manufacturer, each one of
the CA modules supports a certain kind of
encryption system.
Your TV supports CA modules to work with
the DVB-T standard.
Note that a smart card may only be valid for a
single broadcast channel.
• CA modules and smart cards are neither
supplied nor optional accessories from Philips.
The CA module is responsible for the
messages and texts on screen. In case of
failure or strange behaviour, you must call
your CI service broadcaster.

- the MENU key to confirm your selection.
Insert a CA module
Insert the specified Conditional Access
module into the Common Interface slot as
far as it will go. It may take a few minutes
before the CA module is activated and
service information is downloaded.
Warning
When you connect the CA module incorrectly,
it may damage the card and the TV. After
inserting a card, leave it in the slot permanently.
Do not remove it from the slot unless asked to
do so. For example, your card has to be in the
slot when your CI service broadcaster wants to
download new information to the smart card.
Once the CA module is removed, your TV
will no longer decode scrambled digital DVB-T
channels.
To access common interface applications,
see TV menu, Adjust feature menu settings,
Common Interface, p. 24.

• To maintain portability, a slideshow stored
on a PM should ONLY reference content on
the same PM. Referencing global addresses
can result in inconsistencies if the PM is
used on a non-networked CE device. The
latter is however not forbidden, it is only a
recommendation.
• It is preferable that URL’s referencing PM
content are based on a relative path starting
from the directory where the slideshow is
stored. This path includes the device or drive
name of the PM.
An absolute path to content will also be
supported.
• relative path: pictures\test1.jpg, tamper.jpg,
..\new\bird.jpg, …
• absolute path: USB1:\pictures1\foo_bar.jpg,

Digital Camera Issues
If a USB connection between your digital
camera and the TV isn’t working, you can try
the solutions below to resolve your problem.
• Make sure your digital camera is switched on
and verify if the configuration of your digital
camera is correct (see the manual of your
digital camera for more information).
• Some digital cameras allow you to switch off
the USB interface. Make sure that the USB
interface is switched on before connecting to
the TV.
• If you have a digital camera with only internal
memory (no removable memory) you can
try to copy the content manually to a USB
memory device using a personal computer.
• Some digital cameras allow you to switch
between PTP (Picture Transfer Protocol) or
“PC Link” and USB Mass Storage. Make sure
that you select USB Mass Storage or “PC
Drive” on your digital camera.
• If your camera supports different interface
settings be sure to try them one by one or
contact the reseller of your camera to find
out the correct setting.
USB Memory Device Issues
• Devices connected to the USB port of your
TV must be “Mass Storage Class” compliant.
If your device (digital camera. MP3 player,
portable harddisk, …) is not “Mass Storage
Class” compliant it will not be detected by
the content browser of the TV.
• The following subsets of the Mass Storage
Class specification are supported:
The implementation of the TV is based on
the “Universal Serial Bus Mass Storage Class
Specification Overview” (v1.2, June 23, 2003)
including all documents referenced by the
document. The document can be found on
the USB standardisation website (www.usb.
org).
Full support of the USB Mass Storage Class
Bulk-Only Transport (bInterfaceProtocol =
50h).
Full support of SubClass Code = 05h; SFF-
8070i spec.
Full support of SubClass Code = 06h; SCSI
transparent command set.
• For large USB memory devices, when you are
in the Content Browser, it may take a long
time before you can access your files.
• When using a USB portable harddisk: Due to
the high power consumption of the harddisk,
it is advised to use the external power supply
of the portable harddisk to guarantee proper
working under all conditions.
60
Digital Content Issues
• Only FAT (DOS) formatted (initialized)
portable memory is supported. Errors in this
formatting can result in unreadable content.
If such problems appear try to re-format the
card. Be aware that formatting the card will
also delete all the content on it (pictures,
music, …).
• The maximum size of any multimedia file
should never exceed 4Gbyte.
• Do not use a dot “.” in folder naming.
• If video streams are supporting multiple audio
tracks the first audio track will automatically
be selected, the other audio tracks can’t be
selected.
• External subtitle files (e.g. DivX.srt subtitle
files) are not supported.
61
ENGLISH
• Proper working is only guaranteed with
HDMI compliant consumer products. Limit
the cable length to max. 5 m.
• Digital peripheral equipments from different
manufacturers have the possibility of differing
output standards which may cause difficulties
for the television to properly display.
• In case no signal is detected from your HDMI
equipment, switch off the HDMI equipment
and then on again.
To get an optimal viewing, it is advised to
switch your DVD player, Blu-Ray of HD
settop box to the highest possible supported
display modes.
16 Issues referring to
connected peripherals
with a HDMI connector
Note
Teletext will not be available via equipment
connected to a HDMI connector.
The HDMI IN connector allows the following
TV and monitor display modes:
HD Standard Definition TV (SDTV) 640x480i
720x480i
720x576i
Enhanced Definition TV (EDTV) 640x480p
720x480p
720x576p
High Definition TV (HDTV) 1920x1080i
1280x720p
PC VGA 640x480

• If necessary, you can adjust the picture
position to the centre of the screen with the
o or œ, p or π keys.
• Due to legal requirements, it is possible
that with certain copy protected PCM
audio qualities from a peripheral equipment
connected to the HDMI input, the Digital
audio output signal is muted.
• Your TV supports HDCP (High-bandwidth
Digital Content Protection). This is a system
for protecting DVD content outputted via
HDMI from being copied. It provides a secure
digital link between a video source (DVD, PC,
etc.) and your TV. Content is encrypted at
the source peripheral equipment to prevent
unauthorised copies from being made.
